    METACAM targets and relieves both the pain and inflammation caused by osteoarthritis. Relief from arthritis pain can help restore mobility, allowing your dog to return to many of the activities that you both previously enjoyed. Best of all, it can be given once daily, which provides a full 24 hours of relief.

    It is important that you give Metacam according to your vets advice to ensure your dog recovers as comfortably as possible. If your dog has had a general anaesthetic then the after-effects (e.g. unsteadiness and drowsiness) normally wear off within 24 hours.

    Secondly, how much metacam do I give a dog? Metacam is also available as 0.5mg/ml suspension in a 15 ml dropper bottle with a measuring dose syringe included in the package. The usual dose of Metacam in dogs is 0.1mg per pound as an initial dose the first day, followed by 0.05mg per pound once a day thereafter.

    Also Know, can I give my dog extra metacam?

    Initially your dog will start on a dose based on his or her weight. It is important that you never give your dog more or less METACAM than your veterinarian prescribes. Used properly, METACAM will help keep your dog pain-free and help him lead a more comfortable life.

    What happens if I give my dog too much metacam?
